Hintergrund, sind die Gewerbe Diebstahls Kommando der Roma, wobei man dem Roma Koenig, seine Super Luxus Villa abgebrannt hat, der noch nie Steuern zahlte. Ebenso in Rumaenien ist ja der Kinderhandel gut bekannt, wo 15.000 Euro bezahlt werden. Das die Roma Kinder, mit Schlaegen zum Diebstahl angehalten werden und ein Tages Soll erfuellen muessen, ist Geschichte.

Katounitsa aftermath: Two Roma assaulted in Bulgaria’s Blagoevgrad

Residents of Blagoevgrad’s Roma neighbourhood, hearing of the September 28 assault, armed themselves with axes and sticks and attempted to head for the centre of the town but were blocked by a police cordon.

Anti-Roma Demonstrationen in Bulgarien

Eine aufgebrachte Menge zündete das Haus von Zar Kiro an

Seit Tagen versammeln sich tausende Menschen zu Anti-Roma Protesten in ganz Bulgarien. Auslöser: Der Tod eines 19-Jährigen, der von einem Roma überfahren wurde. Politiker bangen nun um den ethnischen Frieden im Land.

Ein Kriminalfall, an dem Roma und Bulgaren beteiligt waren, ließ die seit Jahren angestaute ethnische Spannung in Bulgarien wieder hoch kochen. In dem kleinen Dorf Katunitsa in Süd-Bulgarien wurde am vergangenen Freitag der 19-jährige, slawischstämmige Angel Petrov überfahren. Am Steuer des Minibusses saß ein Mitglied des Roma-Klans um Kiril Raschkov, genannt auch „Zar Kiro“ (König Kiro). Dem Vorfall sei ein Streit zwischen der Familie des getöteten Jungen und dem Roma-Baron vorausgegangen, berichten Augenzeugen.

Kiril Raschkov ist der reichste Mann in Katunitsa und in ganz Bulgarien bekannt. Sein Vermögen verdankt er nach Berichten von Medien und Einwohnern illegalen Geschäften, unter anderem mit schwarz gebranntem Alkohol. Dafür musste er sich aber bislang nie vor Gericht verantworten. Kiril Raschkov habe außerdem unbestraft seit Jahren das Dorf terrorisiert, klagen die Einwohner.

Gewaltsame Demonstrationen

Die Beerdigung von Angel Petrov in Katunitsa sollte ungestört bleiben

Der Tod von Angel Petrov hat die Menschen von Katunitsa aufgebracht. Sie versammelten sich vor den Häusern der Roma-Familie und zündeten sie an. Fußballhooligans aus dem benachbarten Plovdiv, der zweitgrößten Stadt Bulgariens, schlossen sich den gewaltsamen Ausschreitungen an. Es kam zu Auseinandersetzungen mit den angerückten Polizisten. Dabei starb ein 16-jähriger Junge, angeblich an Herzversagen. Fünf Menschen wurden verletzt, etwa 130 Randalierer festgenommen. Gegen einige davon wurden schnell erste Strafen erlassen.

Damit aber fingen die Spannungen erst an. Menschen aus dem ganzen Land fanden sich auf Facebook zusammen und organisierten Gruppen zur Unterstützung der Einwohner von Katunitsa. Der virtuelle Protest wurde ganz schnell auf die Straße übertragen. Tausende versammeln sich seitdem in den Großstädten. Vor allem Jugendliche, darunter viele Minderjährige, zogen wiederholt mit rassistischen und nationalistischen Parolen wie “Zigeuner zu Seife” und “Alle Zigeuner raus” durch die Straßen und liefern sich Zusammenstöße mit der Polizei. Hunderte von Menschen wurden bisher verhaftet.

Kein Beispiel für den ethnischen Frieden

Kosovo War Crimes Witness Found Dead In Germany
Kosovar member of parliament Fatmir Limaj is facing war crimes charges.

Kosovar member of parliament Fatmir Limaj is facing war crimes charges.
September 28, 2011
A European Union official said on September 28 that a key witness in a war crimes trial in Kosovo has been found dead in a park in Germany.

EU rule of law mission spokesman Nicholas Hawton said German police are investigating the death of Agim Zogaj, known as “protected witness X” in the war crimes trial against a former ethnic Albanian rebel commander who is now a senior politician — Fatmir Limaj.

Hawton gave no further details.

Zogaj had been granted protected witness status in return for his testimony in the Limaj trial.

24.12.2010 Opinion: Kosovo under Siege. By Prof. Dr. Agim ZOGAJ/ University of Prishtina
“The Defamatory Report”
(gm) While the Republic of Kosovo as an independent and democratic state is treading new paths in establishing the rule of law and a functional state, Serbian propaganda does not shun any means to deter and damage the processes of state building of its neighbour, Kosovo. In its refusal to recognise Kosovan independence, its territorial integrity and the sovereignty of the Republic of Kosovo, the neighbouring state, Serbia, uses all means at its disposal to interfere in the affairs and internal developments of our country. Serbia, exploiting institutional means, quite openly and without being impeded by anyone, is using the community of the Serbian minority, especially those in the northern part of Mitrovica, to obstruct the advancement of the Kosovan state. Serbia, in close cooperation with its historical friends and allies does not cease to use propaganda as a manipulative campaign tool in its political war against Kosovo for its own hegemonic purposes. The fabrication and and execution of political propaganda against the Albanian nation, not only against the state, but against our leadership and the former Kosovo Liberation Army, has always been part of Serbian tradition and is well known historically. As an illustration of Serbian tradition and the affinity of Serbian governments for fabricating anti-Albanian propaganda, we quote the ideologist of modern Serbian nationalism, the academic Dobrica Cosic, who writes: “The lie is a form of our patriotism and the testimony of our innate intelligence. We lie in a creative manner, with imagination and invention.”

Key Witness in Kosovo War Crimes Trial Found Dead

Agim Zogaj, a key witness in the Klecka war crime case against former Kosovo Liberation Army, KLA, Commander Fatmir Limaj and nine others, has been found dead in a park in Germany.

Blerim Krasniqi , a spokesman for the European Union rule-of-law mission in Kosovo, EULEX, told Balkan Insight: “EULEX can confirm that Agim Zogaj, known as the Witness X, in the Klecka case, is found dead in a park in Germany”.

Agim Zogaj is understood to have been a former KLA fighter who was under the command of Fatmir Limaj, the ruling Democratic Party’s of Kosovo, vice-president and a member of the Parliament. Codenamed “Witness X” while alive, it is not clear whether he was afforded any special witness protection programme.

Former government transport minister Fatmir Limaj was placed under house arrest for one month on September 22.

Last month, an indictment against Mr Limaj and nine other defendants in the in the so-called Kleçkë/Klečka case was confirmed and a main trial is expected to follow. The indictment charged the defendants with various counts of war crimes allegedly committed in 1999 at an improvised detention center located in the village of Kleçkë/Klečka.

Limaj handed himself in to the District court last week to attend a detention hearing.
The hearing took place after Kosovo’s Constitutional Court ruled earlier in September that parliamentarians are not immune from prosecution if sought by the law. The ruling came into effect two days later and made it possible for the former minister to be arrested.

EULEX prosecutors questioned Limaj in March but did not arrest him. Limaj is currently a member of parliament for the ruling Democratic Party of Kosovo, PDK, which is led by Prime Minister Hashim Thaci.

Limaj, who remains a popular figure in Kosovo, has already faced a war crimes trial before the International Criminal Tribunal for former Yugoslavia, ICTY. He was charged, along with Isak Musliu and Haradin Bala, with committing war crimes against Serbs and Albanians suspected of collaborating with Serbia during the Kosovo war.

But in November 2005 the ICTY acquitted him and he returned home to a hero’s welcome, with street celebrations in Kosovo’s capital, Pristina.
